What to Expect from Breast Implant Removal

During your breast implant removal surgery, the implants will be taken out, as well as possible scar tissue surrounding the area. Scar tissue is common after a breast augmentation and may need to be removed if it's affecting the shape of your breast or causing discomfort. After the implants have been extracted, Dr. Hwang may perform a fat transfer, breast lift, or both, depending on what was discussed as part of your treatment plan. The recovery time will vary for every individual, and for the first few weeks, you may experience bruising and swelling. Optimal results can typically be seen approximately 4 – 6 months after the operation.
